Learn to Swim Program

Genesis’ year-round Learn to Swim program is designed for children from beginner to advanced levels. Students progress through the levels at their own pace. Our swim lesson program will help set the stage for a lifetime of water safety by equipping students with the knowledge and skills needed to help them swim safely with confidence. Please refer to individual descriptions to see the skill levels that will be taught in each class.

Students will focus on being comfortable in the water, learn the importance of water safety, get introduced to front and back floats, front and back glides, and alternating arm and leg actions. Children in this level do not need any previous swimming experience.

Students will focus on complete submerging, floating and gliding without support, swim using alternating leg and arm action for five yards, water safety rules, and how to help others. Children in this level should be comfortable trying things on their own.
